Flame to the Moth Lyrics by The Mommyheads

New Kings of Pop

2020

Moth in a jar
Do you know where you are?
Well fed and brightly lit
So there’s no need to tighten the lid
Your story is now a myth
Your past has ceased to exist
They tried to wipe your mind clean
To prove it was all just a dream
Hold on tight to your imperfections
The things that make you who you are
Don’t let them convince you
You’re just another moth in a jar
Hopelessly lost
“But you can’t look away,” said the flame to the moth
How could you be lonely
When so many eyes are watching your wings as you spin?
In circles, hopelessly lost
“But you can’t look away,” said the flame to the moth
Once upon a time
You were a friend of mine
Afraid of no one
With a heart as big as the sun
But the tide began to shift
And the veil started to lift
Leaders can be easily led
By egos that need to be fed
Hold on tight to your imperfections
The things that make you who you are
Don’t let them convince you
You’re just another moth in a jar
Hopelessly lost
“But you can’t look away,” said the flame to the moth
How could you be lonely
When so many eyes are watching your wings as you spin?
In circles, hopelessly lost
“But you can’t look away,” said the flame to the moth
